The Mating Run by Leeka

Drug

The cold seeps into my bones, a relentless chill that sends shivers down my

spine.

The ground beneath me is unforgiving, cold and rough against my restrained body. I can feel the coarse texture beneath my fingertips, confirming my suspicions – must be in some cave, a dark cavern where the echoes of my silent struggle reverberate in the shadows.

I’ve lost track of time in this bleak abyss.

The blindfold denies me the privilege of witnessing the passage of days, and the cold becomes a cruel companion in this isolation.

How long has it been since I was forcibly dragged into this ominous darkness? Hours? Days? The question lingers, unanswered in the void that surrounds me.

A sudden jolt interrupts my contemplation, a brutal yank on my hair that tears through the veil of my thoughts. I gasp, my scream muffled by the fabric pressed against my mouth. The captor’s grip on my hair is a vise, a painful reminder of their omnipotent control.

Tears prick at the corners of my eyes as I’m forcibly pulled into a sitting position. The blindfold denies me vision, leaving me to confront the darkness with a heightened sense of vulnerability. The cold seeps into my skin, intensifying the tremors that rack my body.

The cloth is yanked from my mouth, a sudden liberation that leaves me gasping for air. I’m parched, my throat dry and pleading for relief. The captor’s hand hovers near my lips, a sinister presence that lingers in the shadows.

I’m yanked into an even more upright position, the cold ground biting into my skin. I can feel the captor’s breath against my ear, a sinister whisper that sends a shiver down my spine.

“Drink.” the captor commands, their voice a low growl that sends a shiver down my spine. “Every last drop. You hear me?”

I nod, the desperation for water eclipsing any semblance of defiance. The captor’s fingers press against my jaw, forcing my mouth open. The liquid spills into my mouth, and I gulp it down with a thirst that borders on desperation. The water cool, a fleeting respite from the suffocating dryness that has plagued me. I swallow, each gulp a momentary reprieve from the torment of thirst.

But as the last drops linger on my tongue, a bitter taste creeps in.

“What’s that?” I manage to croak, my voice barely audible. “What did you make me drink?!”

Before I can protest, the cloth is stuffed back into my mouth, silencing any attempt at vocalizing my fear. I’m left to grapple with the lingering taste of the mysterious drink. The captor releases their grip on my hair, allowing me to slump back onto the unforgiving ground. I pant, my breaths erratic as I struggle to regain
